Chapter VIII The Arrival of King Yuling

Li Sui turned around and saw that Emperor Yuan Cheng was stunned by this sudden scene. He could only be frightened and guarded by several guards in the corner. He was holding Concubine Zheng Shu who was also scared. His face was pale and he was trembling.

I can't even tell.

Xu Shi sensed the response outside the palace. The assassins' moves became more and more weird, almost capable of killing with a knife. Yang Chongyuan and his son snatched the sword from the dead assassin's hand. Although they fought back hard, they could not endure the long-term unarmed response and became increasingly disadvantaged.

.

At this moment, Zheng Xiao, the mighty general who was guarding the emperor, suddenly took out a bow and arrow from under his seat, stringed the bow and stringed it in one go. He almost without hesitation faced Yang Chongyuan who was responding to him, squinting his eyes indifferently, with a look that could not be concealed.

murderous intent.

"Zizhong——"

The aunt exclaimed nervously, only to hear a "whoosh" sound, and the arrow flew out quickly, piercing through Yang Chongyuan like light.

In Yang Jin's frightened eyes, the arrow had already arrived in front of Yang Chongyuan. Just as he was trying to block it with his body, the same feather arrow flew in from the outside. He only heard a "ding——" sound, just in time to block it.

The arrow shot at Yang Chongyuan was blocked and nailed to the screen behind the throne, leaving only a trembling sound.

Seeing that Zheng Xiao had failed, he immediately drew his bow again. However, before his arrow could be released, another feathered arrow had penetrated his arm with such force that one could almost hear the sharp arrow.

There was a sound of breaking through flesh and bone, and when he saw him drop the arrow in his hand with a cry of pain, Concubine Zheng Shu was immediately frightened and exclaimed: "Aye——"

Seeing Concubine Zheng Shu crying and running towards Zheng Xiao, Emperor Yuan Cheng, who was protected by everyone, seemed to have just reacted. He almost reflexively held Concubine Zheng Shu tightly and did not let her move away.

At this moment, a sonorous and powerful voice sounded majestically from outside the palace.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Yi, is too late to save you——"

Hearing this voice, everyone was shocked. Even Zheng Xiao was stunned, his eyes full of disbelief.

Sure enough, a group of people wearing black armor and holding long knives rolled into the hall almost like molten iron. The sound of friction between armor and swords was endless. In a moment, they surrounded the rebels outside the hall and the assassins inside.

The black war helmet blocked half of his face, but everyone could see the chilling coldness in those people's eyes.

Zhao Yi?

How come Zhao Yi, the imperial mausoleum king who holds a large number of troops and guards the Western Regions, is in Chang'an?

When did he come back?

According to the laws of the Zhou Dynasty, generals guarding the frontiers were not allowed to return to the capital rashly without the emperor's order, otherwise they would be punished for treason.

But Zhao Yi now?

After the words fell, in the dark crowd, a man wearing silver armor, with seemingly easy-going but murderous eyes walked in tremblingly from the crowd. Under the moonlight, it was clear that even the girl could recognize the face.

He is ashamed of his handsome face. If this kind of appearance is matched with the brocade crown and embroidered robe of the son of a noble family, he must be as gentle and gentle as the young master Yujia. But for some reason, the man in front of him walks in, but at this moment he is carrying overwhelming pressure, almost

No one dared to look at him.

"Zhao Yi, how dare you go to Beijing against the order!"

In the cold and silent hall, only Zheng Xiao's angrily condemning Zhao Yi was heard. However, Zhao Yi ignored it and just strode forward, clasping his fists and bowing respectfully to Emperor Yuan Cheng who was guarding the throne. Suddenly, the vast hall could be heard.

The cold sound of armor clashing.

"His Majesty--"

The sonorous and steady voice of the man fell on the main hall. Immediately, people inside and outside the hall wearing silver armor and holding swords all saluted the emperor in unison. The sound of mountain shouts spread from the hall to the distance like a sea wave.

It was so shocking that even the distant birds flapped their wings and flew away.

Looking at Zhao Yi below, Emperor Yuan Cheng was leaning there in panic at this moment. He was being supported tremblingly by his internal officials, and he said with excitement that could not hide the rest of his life: "Quick, King Yuling, please get up quickly!"

In the calm, Yang Chongyuan suddenly smiled and stepped forward unhurriedly. He did not feel any panic about life and death. He just shook off his sleeves and robe, slightly raised his hands and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I have previously written a letter about the Western Expedition to the Turks, and your Majesty agreed.

, I thought that King Yuling had guarded the Western Regions for many years and protected the peace, so he must have a better understanding of this expedition, so he summoned King Yuling to return to the capital and formulate a strategy for the expedition together. However, I thought that King Yuling had great influence on the countries in the Western Regions.

Because of the power of shock, King Yuling was specially ordered to return to the capital quietly without causing any alarm, in order to avoid any unusual movements in the Western Regions."

At this moment, everyone understood, Emperor Yuan Cheng understood, and Zheng Xiao even more understood.

No one knows that Yang Chongyuan dominates the current government affairs. Yang Chongyuan clearly recalled Zhao Yi, the king of imperial mausoleum, in the form of an imperial edict behind the emperor's back.

Yang Chongyuan valued his ability at a glance and promoted him to the deputy commander of Shuozhou. Later, he was granted the title of King with a different surname by the emperor. Naturally, this was because he was brave and good at fighting and had a high prestige in the army. However, how could it have been achieved without Yang Chongyuan's tacit consent?

.

At this moment, Zheng Xiao no longer cared about the arrow wound on his sleeve that was stained red. He knew that he had made a mistake. Even after planning for a long time, he finally fell into Yang Chongyuan's trap.

When he originally learned that Empress Yang was going to host a banquet for the little princess at the Hua Calyx Tower, he felt that the time had come. He expected that Zhao Yi was far away in the Western Regions, and that water far away could not save him from fire close by, and Taizu had set a rule that no one could bring him with him.

Weapons entered the palace. Although Yang Chongyuan held great power, he did not dare to violate the ancestral rules in public and show his rebellious intentions.

So he prepared this wave of carefully selected and trained assassins, and combined them with the Longwu Army and the Shence Army who were loyal to the emperor. By working together internally and externally, they would be able to kill Yang Chongyuan in one fell swoop. Tonight, both the Yang family and the Li family could be defeated.

The clan was wiped out.

But he never expected that Yang Chongyuan would dare to secretly recall Zhao Yi!

No matter how brave the imperial guards are, they can't compare to the Imperial Tomb Army on the battlefield.

Li Sui stood quietly next to the lacquered pillar. The moment she saw Zhao Yi, she felt even more confident. Sure enough, the figure she saw on her way back to the city from Yuqing Temple yesterday was none other than Zhao Yi.

It can be seen that Zhao Yi had already returned to Beijing before yesterday, but he was hiding outside the city because he was worried about alerting others. He only waited for her to visit her mother, and then he could follow her guards back to the city without anyone noticing.

After all, with her and her father's status, who would dare to interrogate their Li family's chariot and horse guards when they enter the city.

This is clearly a drama that invites you to enter the urn.

Although she has experienced a lifetime, Li Sui doesn't know much about Zhao Yi. She only knows that no matter how many emperors he has experienced, Zhao Yi will always be the king of Yuling who is as stable as a mountain and has a heavy army.

She is in Chang'an and he is in the Western Regions.

The two of them didn't seem to have much contact with each other, but when she took the position of queen, she became more wary of Zhao Yiduo.

Because she knew very well that with Zhao Yi's power and ability, only Yang Chongyuan could still control him.

At that time, her husband was kind and her son was young, so it would be easy for Zhao Yi to rebel.

So she took the opportunity to take back the tiger talisman, promoted Zhao Yi to an official position, and ordered him to station in the Western Regions and not return without an edict.

But he didn't expect that Zhao Yi actually followed her orders and stationed in the Western Region for decades, without showing the slightest disrespect for her decision, and never showing the slightest hint of resentment.

In the end, Zhao Yi did not rebel, but it was their own people who rebelled.

And in the end, she was able to seek help from no one but Zhao Yi.
